Why Many Women Stop Feeling Like Themselves During Perimenopause

Описание: Many women reach a point where something begins to feel different.

Sleep changes.
Stress tolerance shifts.
Emotions feel closer to the surface.

And many women are surprised to learn that these changes often begin years before menopause, during a phase called perimenopause.

In this video, I explain what is actually happening physiologically during perimenopause — how hormonal signaling between the ovaries, brain, and metabolism begins to fluctuate, and why this transition can look very different from one woman to the next.

Understanding the biology behind these changes can help women recognize what their bodies are experiencing and seek thoughtful medical guidance during this transition.
